Hello All!
I am looking to offer an intranet to my clients, as well as document collaboration. I have OSX 10.3.3 I am looking to something similar to Microsoft SharePoint, only MAC friendly and not as expensive. Would .Mac groups be a good alternative? Do the end users have to have MACs to use the intranet? Thanks :girl:

there is a freeware program called sharepoints, that I use to share my external hard drive connected to my macmini to all my windows and mac computers. It is free (hence freeware), and it works very well to share folders, or complete hard drives. As for document collaboration, I am not sure I understand what you are saying, but at least download it, and check it out and hopefully it works.

Thanks for the suggestion

I downloaded it but am not sure I "get it" all...I may have to study it for a while...I am basically looking for a place on my website where my clients can log in, view their projects status, view hours left on their contract, view payment status, etc...
